Compaq StorageWorks SSL2000 Series Library Maintenance and Service Guide
Startup Display Messages
The display on the control panel is capable of displaying four lines of 20 characters each, to
allow the use of easy-to-understand messages. Many of these messages and their functions are
described in this chapter. Those displays that are described in other chapters are cross-
referenced here as well.
Power-On Self Test Screen
When power is first applied to the module, a series of Power-On Self Test (POST) diagnostics
are performed. During POST execution, the model number of the module, the firmware
revision, and the status or result of the test in progress are displayed on the control panel as
shown:
Compaq SSL2020TL
Firmware Level 0X.XX
Checking Hardware
Initialization Screens
After the POST completes, the library robotics are initialized. A series of screens similar to the
one shown is displayed during this process.
